Caloric Refrigerator freezer door or drawer not opening/closing properly

If your Caloric freezer door or drawer won't open or won't stay closed, the most likely culprit is a damaged or bent door hinge that throws the door out of alignment and prevents a proper seal. After the hinge, check the freezer door stop for wear or breakage that can keep the door from latching. A sagging door often points to a bad bottom hinge, so inspect the bottom, then the top and center hinges for bent plates, stripped screws, or worn pivots. In many cases replacing the damaged hinge or installing a door hinge kit restores proper alignment and fixes a freezer door not closing or refrigerator door not closing properly issue. While you’re at it, look for loose fasteners, warped mounting brackets, or gasket damage that can make a fridge door not sealing or refrigerator door misaligned. Enter your model number on RepairClinic.com to find the exact replacement hinge, door stop, or hinge kit for your refrigerator and follow our step by step repair guidance to get the door operating smoothly again.
